I just recently switched to Llumar tint and am having trouble with the film curling or rolling in on itself. As soon as I pull the liner off, the film wants to curl up. Anyone had this issue? I’m coming from xpel film and never had this issue

I've dealt with it for 15 years, occasionally I'll get a roll that wants to go full on fruit roll up. But it's still manageable, I'm told a little curl is helpful for install but my experience with other films is minimal so I can't really offer a comparison.

Just out of curiosity why the switch? I've heard good things about Xpel's film. Sorry I don't have any insight on the curling issue as I've never used Llumar beyond a sample.

I went to a new dealership and that’s what they use.

I had to reprint out like every window my first day because it kept fruit roll upping on me. I think because it’s thinner then it doesn’t keep its shape as well and it’s rolled onto the core opposite. I definitely think the curl makes it more difficult than easier but maybe I’ll get used to it
